ABSTRACT
So far, it has been established that Rabin’s electoral victory in 1992 was of crucial significance in facilitating Israel’s road to peace. After successfully concluding the Oslo Accord on 13 September 1993, it was Rabin – with his reputation as ‘Mr Security’ – who was able to sell the Oslo Accord to the Israeli public. Rabin’s stance and his thinking were key to understanding Israel’s historic decision to sign the Oslo Accord and consequently to secure a peace treaty with Jordan.
